    I've been skeptical of a convention coup succeeding but have to say the sheer chaos of Trump's campaign is making me re-think.

        Question remains: how do you have a convention coup without handing party over to Ted Cruz, who has second most # of delegates & votes?

        Cruz gets inserted as Trump VP. Pays off the Trump debts, instead of other way around. @HeerJeet

        Remember that the convention crowd will not be Trump's crowd, demographically. College educated, white collar, party loyalists.

        If Trump is revealed as broke, will his supporters desert him before convention? Who will they switch to?

        Oh, please - they would double down, convince themselves forces of evil are trying to crush their champion.

        Assumes facts not in evidence. He lost to Trump handily. @fritzco64 @HeerJeet

        I worry that a coup could gain Trump a tremendous amount of sympathy and basically catapult him to the presidency. Some risk.

        Kasich finished 4th in delegates, even behind Rubio. Favorite of everyone except those who vote Republican.
